BRIDGETON -- A Burlington Manor woman who was stabbed in the head during an altercation with another woman at her home apartment complex this afternoon was airlifted to a Camden hospital.

Police located the second woman at Amity Heights apartment complex. She was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

Police responded to a reported fight at Burlington Manor at around 3:10 p.m., according to police. When they arrived, they found no one at the scene, but discovered blood leading inside an apartment. A bloodied knife reportedly was recovered from the apartment.

A short time later, police located one of the injured women, 46-year-old Burlington Manor resident Elizabeth King, hiding in a crawlspace at the apartment complex, Bridgeton Police Sgt. Thomas Speranza.

King had sustained a cut to her head and was bleeding heavily, but was said to be communicating with police. She was flown to Cooper University Hospital by state police medevac SouthStar.

The helicopter took off from Buckshutem Road at approximately 4:25 p.m.

The second woman, 23-year-old Merietha Walker, was located at her Amity Heights apartment about an hour after police had found King.

Walker sustained cuts to her left hand and arm, and possibly to her head, in the fight, Speranza said. She was taken to South Jersey Healthcare-Regional Medical Center, in Vineland.

Both women will be charged with aggravated assault and weapons offenses, according to Speranza, who noted that no independent witnesses came forward to identify either woman as the aggressor.

The two women began arguing at Amity Heights, apparently over money. The dispute continued as they traveled together in a car to Burlington Manor, where the argument escalated.

Police believe Walker wielded a broken bottle and King a kitchen knife during the fight.
